It was a tough loss tonight, we're still in good shape but tonight it was clear to me that Dez it's a poor run router.

The 2nd interception it seems clear to me he didn't complete the route, there was also a 2nd down pass in the 3rd qtr between him and Witten but to me it was clear the pass was intended for Dez.

He seems to give up on those routes.

Again, it was a tough loss and it might be a good week to critic everything, I just don't think it's fair for the team to have guys who give up, as it looked this way tonight.

There's people who likes to compare him with Michael Irvin, but for me... he's way to far from him.

I hope (and which) there's a solution for his route running skills

Agree on that pass that was coming to him, but he thought it was for Witten.

Too me rither he missed a few team meetings this week or him and dak were not on the same page with route audibles. too many passes where the ball was thrown between where 2 receivers are. As for the for heave down the field I knew it was an INT the minute it was thrown.

It's odd that both examples had nothing to do with his route running ability.

Got paid.

Cut him in the offseason and get some real NFL WRs.

Draft a couple and sign Pryor from the Browns.

Maybe some other free agent.

He played like utter crap but Dak didn't give him many catchable opportunities either. He'll rebound

The fumble was on him. But him slipping on his route on the first INT isn't really something you can blame him for.

Dak was nothing short of awful tonight. Can't really put this one on Dez.

On that 2nd interception, Dez saw the safety in the middle of the field and broke his route up field instead of continuing to go across the field.

Probably a mistake but ball should never of been thrown.

xwalker, I have so much respect for almost everything you post here on CZ.

This, however, this just makes no sense.

Either you are being sarcastic OR Dez stole you lunch money in highschool OR Dez stole you girl OR I don't know what...

First interception was on Dez. Second interception was on Dez. Dez catches the pass and fumbles. Three turnovers on Dez. He played like crap tonight!

Two INTs happened when throwing to Dez. And on his only one catch he fumbled.

3 Turnovers partially or fully attributed to his plays...with not one positive play.

Not sure if defense was outstanding or if Dez's mind was somewhere else.

I liked our offense better without Dez.

Since coming back our offense has not been the same. He's a big distraction.

The 2nd interception was 100% Daks fault.
